Sta,—l beg to submit the following questions to you. By favouring with an answer you will greatly oblige your humble servant, A SUBSCRIBER. TO THE ELECTORS OF MARYLEBONE. GENTLEMEN, FNCOURAGED by the spontaneous call of a considerable number'of the Electors of Marylebone to fill the vacancy which has occurred in the Representation of your Bo rough, I do not hesitate to respond to so flattering a proposal, and to become a CANDIDATE for the honour of your suffrages. To be thus invited by any portion of so powerful, enlightened, and liberal a Constituency, I consider, fr.,. itself, a great distinction. The favour which has been shown me on this occasion I can only attribute to my strenuous support in Parliament of the principles of civil and religious freedom, and of political, legal, and commercial Reform. A person died intestate some years ago, leaving a widow and two children, who are now of age; the wid r.v married again during their minority; as she did not administer, does the furniture, &c., which was her first husband's, belcng to the second ?—or, can the children claim the whole, or any part thereof? And, if the second husband determines upon selling the goods to a broker, or by auction, what course should the children pursue ? N.B.—She, as well as the children and second husband, ate still living. [Perhaps one of our readers learned in the law will please to solve the above.—ED. Sun.] THE WEATHER IN IRELAND. CAUTION.

THE FREQUENT ROBBERIES of PLATE have induced JOHN JAMES RIPPON, Ironmonger, of Wells-street, Oxford-street, to MANUFACTURE a SUBSTI TUTE for SILVER, possessing all its advantages in point of appearance and durability, at less than one-tenth the cost. His BRITISH PLATE is of such a superior quality that it requires the strictest scrutiny to distinguish it from Silver, than which it is more durable, every article being made of solid wrought material. It improves with use, and is warranted to stand the test of the strongest of acids, aqua fortis. The following is a sample of the prices ; but purchasers are recommended to apply, post paid, for a Catalogue, which can be forwarded for a single postage:— s e . d. s. .

Whilst these Specta cles excel all others, as regards their very superior refractive pro perty , and their comparative lightness, they possess the further ad vantage of modifying bright and strong light, which, at the same time, is transmitted through the various humours of the eye, so as render vision most perfectly distinct, conveying also a sense of cool ness and pleasure to the organ, with the additional equally impor tant recommendation of being FREE from the pernicious attributes of common glasses ; in short, the qualities of Mr. Solomon's Spec tacles admirably adapt them to afford ease and comfort, by protect ing and strengthening the eyes, and to extend to vision the most decided and instantaneous relief that art can accomplish.

One of the most splendid discoveries of the present age is now univer ally admitted, by the testimony of the most unquestionable authorities, to be GRDISTONE'S EYE SNUFF. This fine herbaceous compound far sur passes anything before offered to the world ; and from its salutary effects on those who habitu,lly use it, i inlay be truly esteemed a national bless. mg. The time has been, when every third man you met in the streets, glared at one through the medium of spectacles, or protected his visual organs by shades of various hues and shapes. Verily the past was a blinking generation ! We ask is it so now? Every one must empha tically answer, " No!" To what can this miraculous change be attri. bitted but to the immens.: consumption of G'rinistone's Celebrated Snuff; which affords certain relief in every affection of the Eyes. (*REIM Ex. . PERT°.

AN APPEAL TO ThE INTELLECTUAL CLASSES OF THE KINGDOM IN FAVOUR OF AN IMMEDIATE REPEAL OF THE REFORM BILL, and the entire reconstruction of the system of Representation. By an M.P. of some standing. Published by Effingham Wilson, 3, Sweeting-alley, Royal Ex change. Mr. Wrrhurton's notice "to call the attention of the House of Commons to the petition of the Baron de Bode," stands for to-night. What course the lion. Gentleman means to pursue on the occasion we know not, but in all probability it will be for the re-appointment of a Committee to finish the examination, and to report upon the merits of the Baron de Bode's claim. The Committee of 1834, eppointed by a House of about 180, out of which 169 who voted in favour of it, were obliged to adjourn to enable the Baron to procure evidence from abroad to meet "points raised and evidence adduced on the part of the respondents which were not anticipated." The Committee, at the request of both parties, adjourned for two months, the latest period the Session would admit of for business, and concluded their report, that they " would be able to present a final report on the case at an early period of the next Sesssion, if the House should be pleased to renew the Committee ; h step which they hardly need suggest to the House is rendered necessary by no fault of either party, and which is essential, to prevent tthe time, labour, and expense which have already been bestowed on the inquiry from being totally useless." The Baron having been put to the expense of about 3,000/. to obtain the evidence required, has fruitlessly for these four, years past been endeavouring to procure the re-appointment of a Committee to examine and report. He has obtained, every document necessary to meet and refute all the allega tions made ; and beyond all manner of doubt, by documen tary evidence to establish the integrity of his claims. Since the adjournment of the Committee, in his character of a British subject, he raised an action against the French Government to recover a part of the estates unsold ; the property by decrees of Court was restored to him, and. he has since sold it. The official and attested documents on this point, as well as on every other, he is prepared to sub mit to a Committee of the House of Commons. The re appointment of a Committee of the House of Commons to finish the examination and report upon this case, is absolutely demanded as necessary for the national honour as it is re quired for the ends of justice. It would be a gross act of injustice to the Baron, and a flagrant outrage upon the in tegrity of this nation, were it possible (but we do not be lieve the statement), that to obviate the appointment of a Committee upon the motion, "a discussion is to be raised upon the particular points of the case" before the House. The Baron's case is one of unparalleled hardship and cruelty. While the Baron de Bode has been most outrageously denied his just and legal rights, " a vast number of parties (above forty) who made no claim in due time, who never appealed against the decision of the Commissioners, and neglected their own interests, some of them even for upwards of sixteen years, have received indem nification ;" and those who have not are amongst those per sons who are now opposing the Baron's claims in the House, and who having received 53 per cent. of their claims out of the fund provided by France for the Baron's claims, say they have " legal right," under " Treasury Minutes," to have their claim s satisfied in full, prior and in preference to the claim of the Baron de Bode, and that " when these arc paid, and not till then, will it he honest or just to entertain the application of the Baron de Bode." So long as a registered claimant remains unpaid, there can be no surplus ; any that might remain afterwards can alone be dis posed of by Act of Parliament. The Lords of the Treasury had no authority whatever to meddle with or dispose of one fraction of those trust funds. Yet we find that by Treasury minutes 250,0001. was transferred to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, to defray tradesmen's bills employed at Buckingham House. It is stated that 250,0001. was also transferred by Treasury minute, to defray the expenses of George the Fourth's visit to Scotland —sixty thousand pounds were paid to Rundell and Bridge, for diamonds, borrowed at the coronation-170,000/. to pay for an estate at Canterbury, &a. &c. &c. On the subject of admitting the supplementary claimants to the funds, the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the 28th of June, 1828, when the case of Mr. Newman was before the House of Commons, stated he was " most de cidedly of opinion that the supplementary claimants were not entitled to participate in this fund (No. 7) as long as a rev lar registered claimant's claim remained unsettled." This is-1 conclusive. Mr. Waller Boyde, a high Tory, nod whose son-in-law, Mr. Baldwin, was made Secretary to the Commission for liquidat ing the claims against France, and who claimed, as the Baron, under Convention No.. 7, was without any hesitation allowed his demand, nearly 1,200,000/. ! If this was a right decision on the part of the Commission ers, why should it not have been equally favourable to the Baron de Bode ? A Committe for further inquiry is the only thing requested, and a Reformed ] - louse of Commons will disgrace itself if it shrink for one moment from agreeing to the inquiry. After a full investigation of all the documents connected with the case, we hold the Baron's claims to be good. At the same time let a Committee be appointed tI decide upon the merits of the case, and that is all that either we or the Baron de Bode deem it necessary to demand. —Morning Advertiser. THE MARKETS.

The Sixth Annual General Court of the members of this flourishing, useful, and extensive Society, was held last eve ning (Isth), at Exeter Hall, for the purpose of balloting for new Directors in the room of those going out by rotation, and receiving the report on the year. Ambrose Moore, Esq., of the house of Alderman Wilson, Moore, and Co , Cheapside, in the chair. After the preliminaries, Mr. Hodgkinson, of the firm of Hozlgkinson and Co., in New Bond-street, was ealled . upon to read the report, he ha'ring presided at the Di rectors' meeting, at which such was prepared, and which he now brought up with a few congratulatory remarks. From this document, which was of a highly satisfactory nature, we give the following extracts :—" Every succeeding, year has enabled the Board of Directors to present a report showing a progressive increase to the annual receipts of this excellent institution, and in reference to the. past year the agreeable duty devolves on them of assuring the members that, not only has the income continued to increase, but that whilst the re ceipts have very nearly reached the sum of twelve hundred pounds, there has bren evinced amongst the assistants an unprecede.nted desire to have the objects and rules more gene• rally known and better appreciated." • " Since the date of the last report, the following sums have been received : 2.7. 4d. dividends on stock ; 223/.' Bs. donations; 157/. 103. life subscriptions; 4261. 63. annual subscriptions ; which; with the sum of 751. already received from the Managing Committee of the bill in December last make the gross receipts of the Institution for the past year, 1,1 881. 6s. 4d. Of the 2101. 10s. (balance on the year 1836-7) and 1,188/. 6s. 4d., 8001. have during the, year been invested in the purchase of 9,0751. 18s. 3d. 3i per Cent. Reduced Annuities." " The establishment of an annual ball has given general satisfaction, and the practicability of an addition to the funds being effected by such means, has been proved. The assis tants have also manifested their inter;tion to co-operate with the views of the Directors, and have voluntarily forwarded, from a social meeting held exclusively for the purpose of in vestigating the true character and merits of the Institution, a list of subscriptions amounting to two hundred pounds. This important addition is not included in the last years' account, and therefore forms an auspicious commencement of the cur rent year's proceedings, which the Directors have no doubt will exhibit a rapidly-increasing prosperity." [The balance in band on the past year also, appeared, from the accounts, to be 2031. Bs. 3d.] This , Report was well received, and it - was unanimously agreed that it should be adopted and published. It was stated that numerous applications were continually being made to enter the Institution. Mr. MUNDAY, of St. Paul's Church-yard, eulogised the principles and operations of the Society, made an energetic appeal in its behalf, and urged its clsims on the active support of the members. The speaker pointed out how its prosperit: was identified with that of the individuals assembled, and stated his conviction that the nature and importance of the Society needed only to be correctly and adequately understood to be more still more embraced. Its advantages were those of gratuitous medical aid, pecuniary relief in sickness, dis tress, or - superannuation, and facilities for procuring situations, &c. by a trifling subscription. Mr. SMITH entered into similar observations, and hoped that persons connected with these trades, would not unwisely delay availing themselves of the cheap and yet superior benefits of fered by the institution, merely because they happened to be in present health and prosperity ; for they knew not what changes might occur, and in many circumstances connected with persons employed in tLir fa3hion—varying businesses, ,•. We had not received our letters from Cove when we were oblig«I to go to press on Thursday, and therefore could not have given those disastrous accounts from thence and other parts of the coast in our rego7ar sheet, which, with many others have since reached us. We soon issued them in a se parate slip, for the information of those who may have been afT..?eted by the disasters. lhe gale commenced at the Cove on Wednesday evening, sonic hours before its force was fi It in this city. The letters from thence state that it set in about five o'clock P. at. , whereas here it was comparatively calm till ab ou t ten —f rom w hi ch time up to a late hour last evening it continued With 0- ,nost uadiminisheri violence. The fury of the tempest then began to abate, and it seems now completely exhiaisted. —this day being remarkably fine. The snow, which began to fall cal ly on Thursday morning, continued all day, and up to a late hour at night, without a moment's intermission —the consequence of which is, .that (very road leading to and from the city is blocked up at a few miles' distance from town, and we have been, and are up to the time of writing, cut off from any cornmulication with even some of the nearest country towns, except upon the Yonghal line and Massage. The first Dublin up coach of Thursdly proceeded about seven miles, where it met an impassable barrier of snow and was obliged to stop. The second up coich could not get further than three or four miles ; and the coach which left yesterday morning at eleven o'clock, • returned at three, LA having been able to proceed more than about two miles after the first change of horses. In this state of things, it was ma nifestly useless to dispatch the evening up coach, and accord. ingly it did not start. Diasters befel the Western coaches on the Bandon line. The Waterford Mail from Cork, on the 15th inst. was obliged to spend that night on the Tallow Mountain, the snow being so high - it could not travel; the passengers were obliged to remain - in-the coach. The Mallow Rakes' coach, on Thursday morning, pro ceeded to within live miles of this city, wheic it remained until this morning, when, with much difficulty, it made its way to town. The coachman, Mr. Johnson, reports the snow in some parts to be eight feet high, and that it is impossible fur a coach to travel on to Mallow. There has been no arrival on the Fermoy line since Thurs day morning. A foot passenger reports that even a common cart could not travel it, the snow being, in many parts, on a level with the ditches. The Limerick Mail, which left here at half-past nine o'clock on Thursday, proceeded as far as the half-way house to Mallow, where, the snow being upon a level with a turnpike gate, ono of the leaders, who came in contact with it, was killed on the spot, and the coach remains there still in eight feet of snow. The up Mail for Limerick of the same day reached Mallow, where it now lies. The Kerry Mail of Thursday morning hence, is lying nt a place two miles west of Alacroora in a drift of snow 12 feet high. No account of the Aia'l from Tralee, the latest arrival thence being of Wednesday. Two o'CLocK.—The Lincrick Mail bags of Thursday have been just received ; they wore brought by one uf the Guards, on a single horse. flc states that he walked the greater part of the road, which is covered with deep drifts of 5110 W. THREE o'ceocx.—The Dublin coach, whim left here to day at eleven o'clock, has just returned, not being able to proceed beyond Mr. Brazier's Gate, near Watergrass Hid, the snow there being ten or twelve feet high. The Corte Southern Reporter of Saturday, from which mire. the above p ar ti cu l ars are g l eane d , states i n a Second Edition, published at five o'clock, that "'the Dublin, (via Clonmel) Mail bags of Wednesday evening, due here on Thursday at a quarter past two o'clock, have been just now brought to the Post-office by Mr. Bottle, the guard, who states that the coach is at Fcrmoy since Thursday morning, and that, with great difficulty and exertion, he succeeded this day in urging on a single horse; such was the state of the road—that no tidings had reached Fermoy of the four coaches tine to-day—and that Me. Briscoe, of Fermor, had placed 100 men on the road between that town and Cork, who are engaged in clearing away the sooty." The Dublin Freeman says the southern !ine of road con tinues completely impassable for vehicles of any kind. We are thus without any communication from Cork. The Li merick mail bags were conveyed to Dublin across the flelts, from Naas, by men emplyed for that purpose, the roads being blocked up even to foot-passengers from Naas. Chaises, with four horses, were put in requisitien yesterday morning, for the conveynnea of the southern mails, but, after proceed ing three or four miles, were obliged to return, unable to icrce a passage through the drifts of snow. On the northern ti.e coaches, with six horses attached to each, slowly and with difficulty make a tardy progress on their journeys. THE STEAMERS.—Great anxiety was manifested for such of these vessels as were known to be at sea. The Victory, Capt. Parker had left on Tuesday for Bristol, aed the weather, even then, was any thing but fair or favourable. The recent loss of the Killarney encreased the solicitude for the ship at sea, nor was the public mind at all at case with respect to her un til yesterday evening, when a letter was received from Capt. Parker at the Packet-office, dated from Kinsale, into which place he had succeeded in getting.—Cork Southernßeporter. Loan CIMNBROOK.—This Noblemen has been elected a Representative Peer—the numbers at the close being—For Lord Clonbrook, 75;- for Lord Langford, 4.—Dublin Even iny CHARGE OF ARSON. Tuesday, at one o'clock, bring the time fixed for the final examination at Maryicbone police-office of Robert Miffs, on a chrrre of wilfully setting fire to bis .house, No. 28, Iligh-street, Marylebone, on the 221 ult., at the hour al pointed Mr. Clarkso n , f or th e p rosecut i on , M r . Thomas, furl the defence, and the Witnesses bring present, the prisoner wan brought in an.l placed at the bar b,:fore the sitting Niagi3- trates, Mr. Rawlinson - and Lord Montford. The ofilee was criwded to excess. Robert Story, fireman No. t 3, of the fire brigade, was the first to arrive with Lis engine at the fire. He was called at a quarter to one o'clock, and when he got there the house avia to a body of flames. lie had since been employed.to sift the ruins well, and found a silver w.;tch with a gold seal, slw() of a lion attached, and a key ; also a halt-crown piece, one shilling, and some halfpenCe. lie also discovered some re mains of ;coon: - n and linen things, but none of any consequence. Mr. Jan Thomas Claridge, tailor, NVeymouth-street, re membered the night of the fire. On hearing of it ho went to the :louse, and oa entering the passage saw the prisoner, a policeman, and an,ther man. Mrs. Miers at that moment came down stair:, and he conducted her to his resideuce, where she ent,:ccd the iiarlour and sat do.rn. She appeared to be partly undressed. He could not see her stays; she had a shawl over .her slt;ulder, and over that a cloak. She had no bonnet or cap on, rend from the smooth state of her hair, he should think she had not been in bed. He left Mrs. Miers to go and too!: at the fire, and when it was nearly out rettnnc.l home, when he found the prisoner sitting by the side of his wife, talking together in a whisper. Examined by Mr. Clarkson—They appeared to he in a very cool and comfortable state ; and observing that, lie went to Mr. Boyle's, and told him how easy they seemed. Witness asked•prisoacr if he had any idea what caused the fire, and he said, " None whatever ; he had locked up the shop at half past eleven o'cleeK, and did act go in again till the time of the alarm." Prisoner then sliortly afterwards said he would fetch a coach ; but witness feiched one. The depositions were then read over, and the prisoner was fully committed to Nen - gate for trial. Mr. Douglas Jerrold's long announced work, en titl..d " Men of Character," is at length Lefore the public. The lovers of wit and humour will fiad abundant amusement in these volumes, if we may judge from the table of contents, which comprises the following "distinguished characters" Adam Buff, the Man " w;thout a Shirt"—Job Pippin, the Man "who could rot help it''—Jack Runnymede, the Man "of many thanks"—Creso Quattring, the Alan " who died rich"— John Applejohn, the Man " who meant well"—lsaac Cheek, the Man "of Wax"—Matthew Clear, the Man " who saw his tray"—Barnaby Palms, the Man t‘ who felt•his way"—Titus Trumps, the Mai "of many hopes." The work is illustrated - by several capital characteristic etchings, after Thackcry. ALARMING FIRE.—On Monday evening, about six o'clock, some passersby perceived flames issuing from tile second floor front room, occupied as a bedroom,•at the house of Mr. Cloghern, a gentleman residing' at No. 3, Portman place, Edgeware-road. An alarm of fi:e was immediately given, and the parish-engine of Paddington soon arrived, but, although there was a plentiful supply of water, it was unable to act, owing to a defect in the hose. The flames all this time were ragin g with unceasing fury and threatened de struction to the adjoining dwellings, the inhabitants of which were busily engaged in removing everything they could. In about a quarter of an hour the Al•trylebone lone engine arrived, followed by the .King -street, Wells street, and others, when by the able assistance of the firemen and ethers in working them, the fire was prevented spreading and ultimately sub dued, but not before the house was entirely gutted and e very article of furniture destroyed. Mr. Clog:horn, we believe, i 3 insured. It is believed that the fire originated by the bed curtains catching fire, as at the time it baske out the servant was about to put the childr.m to bed. A Very sad event occurred on Thursday during the ittin7 of the Chamber of Pi c:s. The - diicusston on the sane ' l3ll hid just bre!d elosr t!, when one of the Noble Piers, who hal attentively followed the debate, res.° from his seat, and seizing by the collar one of his lately appointed collengueo, summoned him in angry terms to return him his badge of the Legion of Honour. The witnesss7s of thii scene cimld not but observe as a strange cur:eidetic() that the first applicatiou or the law under discussion would be to one of those by whom it had been voted.—Quolidieloe. r" . ..;/ . 1.- \ ~_ , r.
